emerson and ryan, of emerson made, had their home featured on the nest.com and i am telling you it's hard to look at there home and not feel a little discontent. so whatever you do, don't allow yourself to go there..... avoid those thoughts, if you can. just go to this link of their home tour and read all the helpful hints on how she achieved such a tidy and pretty home. you can do it! be inspired not discouraged.

fyi: those large glass jars with lids {featured in her kitchen and bath} can be found in 3 different sizes at wal-mart for a very reasonable price and thrift stores always have glass jars in stock.

Daisy had her last Chemo & I got a Vintage Camera I may be in love with just a little.

Daisy celebrated her last round of Chemo with a raging party and good friends.

Pray for her. She's having a lot of pain and discomfort right now.

If you want to know how you can give more than your prayers to Daisy you can. You can give a donation to the Children's Hospital in Santa Barbabra where Daisy is treated. Janna Christ of Reality Carpenteria sent a personal thank you to each of you from Britt for praying for Daisy.

As far as the camera goes I am really happy it was on Etsy. I first spotted it in a photshoot I loved and I can't wait to use it as a prop for upcoming photoshoots.

Hi everyone! I haven't been able to catch up on my favorite blogs in soooo long but I am back and starting tonight I will be doing some much needed catching up (on your blogs) and telling you about Lo Boheme, one of my favorite sites for vintage inspired hair pieces.

Shop owner- Lauren

She designs the most beautiful hair pieces for women and young women (even little girls) to wear for very special occasions. If you live in California, have gotten married in the last few years or our in the wedding industry you are sure to have heard of Lo Boheme and you know the magic her hair pices will do for your hair. I love that each piece has a vintage look to it. It makes you look timeless and yet so perfect for today's look.

I recently styled our company photo shoot for Mike Larson Inc. It was so fun because Lauren of Lo Boheme sponsored our shoot. Each of us had our choice of lovely hair pieces to wear. The hardest part was picking which one because they were all so pretty. Here are all of us wearing ours.

I loved the colors in my piece. It had hints of teal blue and turquoise feathers. LOVE! Now go check out her site and I DARE you not to fall IN LOVE.

About Me

i'm a california girl who lives by the beach & loves to soak up the sun and sand. i like to visit my local coffee shop with my closest friends. the little things in life make me happy & i still get just as excited to go to disneyland as i did when i was 5. i am who i am because of jesus.

Thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress (Psalm 4:1 kjv)It is a statment of thanksgiving for having been set free not from suffering but rather through suffering. In stating, "Thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress," the psalmist is declaring that the sorrows of life have themselves been the source of life's enlargement......for it is in the shadows of your life that you will find the actuall fulfillment of your dreams of glory. ~George Matheson
